yes, so why you got stick up butt over this issue? there are vetting process that weed out those not fit for military duty, regardless of gender identity. I'm gonna start calling you Ping-Pong Lady Balls because you seem to go back and forth often contradicting yourself, either that or you don't actually have any clear idea what the fuck you are talking about.
Oh I know what I am talking about. Don't worry about me nox. All is well here. No stick here, why are you getting bent about this? Someone who is transgender has no need to identify themselves as such if they are a soldier, they are simply a soldier. Gender question should not be a question, neither should ethnicity. If you have a dick, you sleep with all the other dicks. If you have a vag, you sleep with all the other vages. The doctor will mark it down upon examination. Psychological exam, you are admitted or not. No screaming discrimination if rejected. Physical exam same thing. I say no to sex change surgery and our taxes paying for it. kapesh??
please Nox, don't reduce the size of my lady balls and emasculate me. I like my big beach ball size lady balls.
$8 million (est.) - a tiny amount, infinitessimal within the defense budget, picayune, unimportant, red herring There's another school of thought that says 'trannies are hot' so that's another constituency in their favour The only thing I need to know as a captain is "can they project force down range. Can they contribute to the weight of lead in the air which is part of the calculus of manning a 'front' - as one example. When the North K's are swarming over the Humvees, can they KBar the buggers right and left I don;t really care what they do in their spare time Of course, unit morale is important. Some units may not be receptive to alternative genders so that has to be taken into consideration. I agree that fighting efficiency should generally come first overall
First of all, citing Lady Gaga to back up your stance? Priceless... Second, no, it can't be both. I mean, it could, but it's not. Because the same goal could be accomplished by denying reassignment surgery and only allowing them to serve in stateside desk jobs. This is about discrimination.
I suppose you failed to read or quote the part where I said I was tired and failed to explain myself properly.... etc...
Thanks for pointing out and proving that trumps interest lies in protecting people right to privacy. You are aware that Obama only partially released his tax return right? He just let the people see what he wanted them to see. I call this manipulation. It showed huge amounts of money given to his racist pastor, a man who he had over to dinner once a week, a man who was anti American and pro Islam. Went to him for over 20 years. A man Obama called a mentor, which is clear he was with his anti America anti white/pro black attitude. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=vdJB-qkfUHc It would have been wise for Obama to hide his tax return. He denounced his mentor when his sermons became public. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=vdJB-qkfUHc
LOL Thanks for making clear your not serious He's the president, not an ordinary citizen. There's no good excuse to not be open about them for a president, except of course to hide something dubious.
Do they, your president, release their tax returns in your country? I don't believe they do in Canada. Another thing I find interesting is they do not release it year after year in the USA while in power as far as I can tell. They just release their previous year before running and often only a partial one. Easy enough to hide what you want to hide by moving money around or selling off your investments. Most people know years in advance that they will be running for presidency or prime minister and can prepare for it.

My point is that it is a choice, a choice I would not make to release and just because you are the president doesn't mean you have to. It began with Nixon, and we all know what he was. Hilary is another crook. Many of these people (presidents) did only partial releases, letting you see what they wanted you to see. So many countries don't do it, yet people bitch about the USA for anything and everything. People expect more from that the USA pres than they do from their own government head. Just another excuse to complain imo and paint conservatives as evil. With the fascist actions of groups who are boycotting all trump companies, investments and charities. he is protecting the interest of not only his children but that of the public who have invested in companies as well as charities. Some people are on a witch hunt. I don't care if he releases them or not. He is your president and releasing them makes no difference.
That's merely your conclusion. It's an excellent tradition and its just noticable when one president doesn't do it (for no good reason: he has something to hide). It has nothing to do with conservatives in particular. It's really just Trump this is about. Not sure what that has to do with this president not being open about his taxes. Its a valid concern. Im also doubting all the businesses and groups boycotting Trumps companies do so for fascist reasons but ok. You are entitled to your opinion. It's pretty clear releasing them would make a difference though: if they're ok it grows trust and the whole thing is really over. If not it is an affirmation he's not a reliable and trust worthy leader. Ordinary citizens are supposed to be honest in their tax returns yet this rich mr fancypants can lead this country while being dishonest about this and keeps who knows how many 1000s of dollars from the common good while hardworking citizens have to pay their fair share, essentially compensating for this shit. Why? Why not care a little or have a critical opinion about that..
^ASMO, does the Netherlands government release their tax return documents and reveal their income, investments and charities the give to, to your people? He is not the only one to not do and to not release or to partially release you are still hiding something. To partially release it you are manipulating the people, letting them see only what you want them to see in order to paint yourself in a certain light.
